[notes to accompany 2viola.1bk]

Here are some new patches;

Wahieh; Enter the vast world of VL with this strange beast. With Mod 2
down
and Mod 1 up you have an opera-singer on b3 and c4 and frogs in the upper
octave of the keyboard. Geese are residing in the c2-c3 area. With Mod 2
in
center position and Mod 1 down someone's shouting and yodeling Eehah and
Aheeh (physical yodeling) when you alternately play g3 and c4, whilst
blowing hard. This is, however, the tip of the iceberg. For
Babyphone-fans.

2-Viola's; I feel a soundtrack coming on. Aftertouch adds vibrato,
modulation trills, continuous slider 1 mute, continuous slider 2
harmonics.
Switch to unison for polyphonic playing. Increase return on the delay for
more space/instruments.

VyoMod4fxt; Quiet, moody, mysterious, X-file-ish. Same recipe as
2-viola's,
except for modulation. Extreme settings of modulation change the
instrument
into a kind of theremin or singing saw. Briefly pulling back the
modulation
wheel puts the system in oscillation, which can be sustained by breath
control.

The-Rock; A Vangelis-style sound. Modulation wheel 2 brings in scream and
throat to change held notes into ominous drones, especially way down low.

X-Pander; A cross between an Oberheim X-pander lead sound and Pat
Metheny's
guitar synth. A thing of beauty.

Mr.Blatty; This fierce FM-like brass-monster was created from (believe it
or
not) a crumhorn-patch.

3mSynSaxBC; Expressive lead/ensemble sound. Good for Jazzrock/world.

King Fisum; Morphs between a thunderous, inharmonic bass and a
hand-stricken
plastic tub. Use the octave switches to explore the full range of possible
timbres. To scare the bass player and the percussionist shitless.

Banjo; Sort of.

Regards; Wietze Krikke.
